Egg Prices

@ChiefJustWalks hot

@cherokeepatti Carrefour isn't a luxury store. It's just a French supermarket chain. Luxury foods as far as VAT are concerned in Europe are just any non-essentials. Ice cream and similar products, alcohol, savoury snacks including any prepared nuts, and confectionery are taxed at the standard VAT rate in the UK, most other food is zero rated. Other European countries have similar rules but differ in the details.

@ninalanyon Might not be luxury but locals don’t want to pay any higher prices for imports. I am talking about North Africa and other surrounding countries. I have known people in those countries who want to boycott them. The foreigners living and working there will shop there because it’s convenient to get everything in one place and they don’t have to hassle with crowds in the open markets and pickpockets etc.

@cherokeepatti Ah, I see what you mean. Luxury is relative. And the convenience is why the supermarkets won in first world countries too.

@calicuz 30 eggs for 8 Can pesos here.

@BeachGirl47 I don't smoke cigarettes anymore but I do know those Cigarette Prices are crazy high now.

I only smoke cigars which are cheaper

@FreestyleArt yes they are crazy.

@FreestyleArt that was done to decrease smoking and save lives. You do know that big tobacco lied, falsified claims and added nicotinic to cigarettes to hook even more people!

@4meAndyou Winco dropped their price for a 5 dozen box to a little less than $15…less than $3 a dozen.

@cherokeepatti I saw that price you posted...awesome! And here we are calling $3 a dozen awesome, when I used to get a dozen eggs on sale for 99 cents.

@Lilymoon You buy organic eggs?

@samueltyler2 "fake bird flu" brought to you by the same people who thought Jewish Space lasers were starting forest fires

@TrashCat I was in the store the other day and Joe Biden himself was increasing the egg prices.

@TrashCat only liberals do that

@Stargazer89 Republicans allow the monster of intellectual corruption to consume them out of fear, gullibility, and ignorance.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales you are getting a bargain!

@Punches tell that to the farmers who lost their flocks.

@Punches According to media reports, about 23 million chickens were destroyed due to the avian flu in 2022. However, 51 million chickens were destroyed in 2015 due to the same virus, and we didn't experience the same egg shortage or high prices. The avian flu is not the issue.

@SW-User I kind of figured that was the case but I didn't want to say anything, that did make me laugh though.😄 are they going around fact checking everybody or was it just that stereo guy?

@Punches Seems to be they are fact checking anyone who says something they don't like... about their site or themselves. One was a poll about new users. lol When you are somehow involved in the post or comments of someone being fact checked, you get a notice just like you would for anything else... except it's a blue bell! Fancy stuff there! Ahahahahaha!

@SW-User I kind of figured that, I wonder if the Blue Bell is like a marketing scheme for Blue Bell ice cream? But yeah the admins are not too crazy about people bringing up about how they handle the underage content.
